Dirty Greek - What Do You Mean, "Not Funny?"

It is certainly true that 'God' is often reduced to an idol created in the image and likeness of 'his' worshippers. If we imagine God to be a being like ourselves writ large, with likes and dislikes similar to our own, it is all too easy to make 'him' endorse some of our most uncharitable, selfish, and even lethal hopes, fears, and prejudices. This limited God has thus contributed to some of the worst religious atrocities in history.

"Not Funny!" reads the headline on FoxNews.com. I disagree wholeheartedly. This is the article:

^"BOSTON A suspicious package alert that shut down downtown Boston Wednesday afternoon was actually part of an elaborate marketing campaign by the Cartoon Network to spark interest in its "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" show.

Absolutely ridiculous. This has been done in 8 or 9 other cities with no problems at all. All of a sudden, Boston freaks out, and Fox acts like Turner has dome something awful. The terror involved is funny, but more funny "uh oh" then funny "ha ha," because if LED cartoon characters are creating bomb scares, we have a serious problem!
